The prioritization process ranked goals individually, in a relative fashion. Goals are now arrayed in three different levels; Level 1 goals are considered most important. All goals will be incorporated in design alternatives. Rankings will only be used as a means of making design decisions when one goal appears to require precedence over another. Operational Project Goals take into account prior work by the Park Commission including the Criteria for Restoration Plan adopted November 17, 1997. The goals are intended to help maintain focus on the three major design spheres the Master Plan will address:providing additional flood control and/or hazard reduction', protecting and enhancing the stream corridor functions and values, and providing attractive and vital urban spaces while maintaining existing uses. Opportunities for comment and re proioritization of the goals will occur during further stages of the master plan process. Level 1 • To protect human lives and structural integrity of the buildings in the Plaza during a severe flood event. (relative score 72) • To enhance the natural setting and environmental functions and values of Ashland Creek in Calle Guanajuato. (relative score 50) • To greatly reduce damage to public infrastructure during a severe flood event. (relative score 44) Level 2 • To greatly reduce damage to private property during a severe flood event. (relative score 32) • To establish interesting and attractive urban spaces on Calle Guanajuato. (relative score 29) • Blend new Calle Guanajuato design elements with the Plaza/Downtown area and with Lithia Park. (relative score 22) • To maintain existing uses in Calle Guanajuato. (relative score 21) Level 3 • To allow for interaction between pedestrians and Ashland Creek on Calle Guanajuato area. (relative score 16) • To restore and enhance the Calle Guanajuato as a part of the heart and soul of Ashland. (relative score 9) ' Operational goals assume floodwater will be contained, to the maximum extent practicable, within the Calle Guanajuato area downstream of the new Winburn Way Bridge. It is also assumed that floodwaters will be prevented from being directed toward the Plaza area, to the maximum extent practicable, by activities and structures upstream of the Winburn Way Bridge. These goals were incorporated in earlier work on Ashland Creek by the City and their consultants,OTAK, and are not to be revisited in the scope of this project.

Throughout the course of the meeting, the Parks Commissioners reviewed the proposed plan and discussed areas for revision or further review in accordance to adopting the Preferred Option. The following hollered items are a list of the design elements composed during the Parks Commission meeting for further consideration in the final master plan. The items are listed in no particular order and were placed into groups by the design team in respect to the Operational Design Goals provided by the Parks Commission on June 29, 1999. Please review attachment for the complete list of Operational Project Goals. Level 1 To protect human lives and structural integrity of the buildings in the Plaza during a severe flood event. (relative score 72) Maximize high bridge ability to pass debris; consider big trees in-stream To enhance the natural setting and environmental functions and values of Ashland Creek in Calle Guanajuato. (relative score 50) • Use stacked system for structural base on area upstream of main pedestrian bridge; add boulders where possible; place large riparian trees in this area; maintain some access, perhaps limit access for first few years to allow riparian vegetation to establish • More riparian trees on east side • As much vegetation along the creek as possible To greatly reduce damage to public infrastructure during a severe flood event. • Better protection of transformers in reference to Level 1 goals • Consider moving lower transformer- leave wall area; remove seating aspect Level 2 To establish interesting and attractive urban spaces on Calle Guanajuato. • We should look for dead space in east side where benches, flowers, and other amenities could be placed either now or in final design phase • Light Trespass - use lights that stay on site • More development of connection to new alley through Masonic Hall • Emphasize trees over seating - seating where it works within design parameters Level 3 To restore and enhance the Calle Guanajuato as a part of the heart and soul of Ashland. (relative Parks Commissioner's Meeting Summary Page 2 score 9) • Guanajuato design features - remember this is Ashland, use an echo of features (wrought iron or cantera rock) Miscellaneous • Remember it is an alley - obtain local antedotal information; insure it and other functional aspects are included in the design • Just indicate picnic area- do not show tables • Four problem trees in Calle - continue depicting on plans, address later in traffic flow study
